ARE THOSE SQUARE TUBED PANELS .... HOPE SO !!
They are tuffer than the round tubing panels and are so easy to use some metal barn self taping
screws to attach 3/8's or 1/2 inch plywood to the square tubed panels ..
You can use 2 ft or 4 ft high of plywood .. both are excellent for keeping a horses legs out of a panel ..
use 4ft high if you have a kicker ... lol
just line up the bottom edge of the plywood with the bottom square tube and start screwing with
a drill motor with socket or screw driver thingy ... no problem with leaving the open space where legs
of panel are ...
I laid my square panels on the ground since I was doing it by myself and they last for years ..

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW BARN... LOOKS GOOD!!
Yes they are the square. I will look into the plywood if i end up having a kicker, in MO the humidity is so oppressive I want the air flow. Thank fully there is a huge door where I took the recent pic looking in on the stalls that lets a nice breeze through both of the stalls and out through the open side. Thanks all! Herbie, I agree this is basically like my first home! It is definitely my babies first home for sure.

We brought in a few loads of new dirt for the stalls and had a storm all last night. Pretty nice to have dry ponies this morning! Thanks all!
I'm so excited for you. I can remember when we built our barn, I was clueless as a goose, but so excited my babies were gonna have a place to hang out. Looking back now, there are things I should have done differently, but I'm so happy it's still standing and they still have a roof over their heads!! Plus my ex-husband built it with help from our farm hands, and since he's gone now at least Chandler will always have that barn as proof of Chris' handiwork. . . .
